🌿Poveglia per tutti entra ufficialmente nella storia! Dal 1° agosto, l’Associazione Poveglia per tutti ottiene la concessione dell’isola di Poveglia: uno dei luoghi più simbolici e dimenticati della laguna di Venezia torna finalmente a vivere grazie a un progetto partecipativo, inclusivo e pubblico.

So proud of being part of this lagoon of Venice's amazing project. Associazione Poveglia per tutti shows that people's desire is power to shape processes of bottom up urban regeneration. The lagoon of Venice is amazingly wild and a place that needs good care www.repubblica.it/cronaca/2025...

Un'altra estate di lotta per salvare il paesaggio Veneziano. Questa demolizione forzata é una violenza sociale ed ecologica, che rimarrà impressa nella memoria dei nostri figli. Vi invito a firmare la petizione siamo ad oltre 5000 firme in pochi giorni: chng.it/tpvmKLR56Q

One of the most common arguments you hear from fans of generative ‘AI’ is that it’s not plagiarizing people’s work, it’s just learning like a human learns. So I’m going to break down why that’s just not true, and why it can never be true, with the existing systems. 1/

Rare species matter more than you think! In this new study, we show how the loss of low-abundance amphibians affects functional diversity in tropical forests of the Colombian Pacific. #Biodiversity #Conservation #Ecology
